Abstract

A fluid valve for influencing a fluid flow, including a valve housing in which an actuator is accommodated which can be moved between a first and a second functional position, further including a fluid passage which extends through some regions of the valve housing and terminates at a valve seat in the valve housing, and further including a sealing means which is motion-coupled to the actuator and designed for temporarily sealing the valve seat as a function of the functional position of the actuator, wherein a plastically deformable adjustment means is assigned to and designed to act on the actuator in order to allow a position of the sealing means to be adjusted in at least one of the functional positions of the actuator, the adjustment means being designed as a positionable abutment for the actuator or for a coupling element arranged between the actuator and the sealing means for the purpose of motion-coupling.
